ELAC

English Learner Advisory Committee (ELAC)

In accordance with the California Education Code, section 52176(b), all schools with twenty-one or more English learner (EL) students, not including Reclassified Fluent English Proficient (RFEP) students, are required to establish an English Learner Advisory Committee (ELAC).  

Schools are required to form the ELAC at any time during the school year when the number of identified EL students reaches 21 or more. All parents with students attending the school in which the ELAC is established are eligible and should be encouraged to participate in the ELAC.

Want to learn more about ELAC? For questions regarding ELAC, please contact Topeka's TSP Advisor and School Coordinator, America Castagnola.

 

You are encouraged to make a difference in the governance of our school by participating in this year’s English Language Advisory Council (ELAC).  An orientation and election have been scheduled to provide you with an understanding of the functions, responsibilities, and officer positions of the ELAC.
